The conversation soon turned to complaining about the stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned

36、 with a large pot of coffee and many cups-china(瓷), plastic and glass, some plain(朴素的) looking, some expensive and some lovely. The professor told them to help themselves to the coffee.When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “Can you notice all the nice looking expensi

37、ve cups were taken, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones? While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source(根源) of your problems and stress.”“What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you went for the best cups and were eyeing each others cups.”“

38、Now think about this: life is the coffee, and the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and do not change the quality of life. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cups, we fail to enjoy the coffee. So dont let the cups drive you, enjoy th

39、e coffee instead.”1What did the group of old classmates get together for?AVisiting their old university professor.BSeeing each other.CComplaining about their stress in work and lifeDShowing each others success.2What cups did the old professor give to his students?AAll china cups.BPlastic and glass u

With the

43、challenges(挑战) of school, just paying attention in class or studying hard isnt always enough. But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades? For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy. Research suggests that a person who likes

44、doing activities can improve their grades.Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies, but also exercising their brains(大脑). In turn, they can be able to improve their grades at school. In the most recent study, researchers found that when children played

45、 for half an hour each day, they were better at organizing(组织) their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally “difficult” subjects, such as maths.What does this mean for children who arent active? Researchers think that if kids dont get enough activities, they are going to

46、 be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance.In the research experiment, a group of children skipped with ropes(跳绳), played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises. Another group of children didnt do any activities. They took part in testing both before experiment and af

47、ter the experiment. Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills. Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity.All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy, but will also negatively(消极地) affect his grades in school,

48、according to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics.Parents complain(抱怨) children today are actually less active and they always worry about their grades. Dr. Belton, an expert, said, “If youd like to see your kids do better in school, have them close their books, set down their pencils

49、and go outside to play.”1What does the underlined words “rest easy” in Paragraph 1 mean?AStop worrying. BKeep working.CContinue learning. DStudy hard.2What kind of children is better at organizing their schoolwork in the most recent study?AThey study all the time.BThey play for half an hour every da

50、y.CThey finish their homework on time.DThey do some reading after class every day.3In Paragraph 5, what does the research experiment want to show us?ADoing activities is bad for the students.BDoing more homework can get better marks.CThe children in the activity group did better on the tests.DChildr

51、en who didnt do any activities did better on the tests.4To help children get better grades, parents should _.Aask the researchers for helpBhelp them to organize their schoolworkCencourage them to do more activitiesDlet them solve problems by themselves5What is the best title of the passage?AStudying

52、 hard. BTaking part in testing.CDoing activities is interesting. DBeing active is helpful for better grades.F18、Danny lived for football. He played it, watched it, talked and dreamed about it. His favourite football star was Keith Connolly Lowgates captain.One day in January, after school, Danny hur

53、ried through his homework. He wanted to watch TV. Keith Connolly was doing an interview on the local news programme.Danny hoped that the television wouldnt go fuzzy*or lose the sound when KeithConnolly was talking.

54、th Connollys smiling face appeared on the screen.“What I really like about playing for Lowgate,” he said, “is the fans. Theyre the best. They always support us. Its wonderful running on to the playground to all that cheering and chanting.”Danny wished he could be in that crowd at the Lowgate ground,

55、 but the price of a single ticket was far above anything he could afford. There was no chance of the whole family going, or even just Danny and his little brother.“You won again on Saturday,” said the reporter. “Did the team go out to celebrate?”“We went for a meal together,” said Keith Connolly, “b

56、ut I have to be careful about what I eat, because I want to stay fit. I love doughnuts* very much ”Then the sound went fuzzy, and Danny jumped up andthumpedthe top of the set heavily to make it come on again. He hadnt missed much. But he had missed something important.Keith Connolly had been saying

57、“ but Im not allowed to eat doughnuts.”Danny hadnt heard that. All he heard was that Keith Connolly loved doughnuts. And at the end of Dannys street was a bakery*. It sold the biggest and the best doughnuts!When Danny went to bed, he lay wide-awake, making a plan.1One day, Danny did his homework hurriedly in order to _.Awatch a TV programmeBinterview Keith Connolly
